Jerónimo Morales Neumann (born 3 June 1986), known as Jerónimo, is an Argentine professional footballer, who plays for Independiente Rivadavia in the Primera B Nacional.
Jerónimo has previously played for a number of clubs in his home country, including River Plate, San Lorenzo, Instituto, Estudiantes de La Plata and Independiente Rivadavia. In February 2015, he signed for Club Atlético Tigre after a stint in Australia with Adelaide United and Newcastle Jets. On 6 January 2016, he returned to former club Independiente Rivadavia.
Jerónimo signed for Barnsley on 29 July 2010, signing a one-year contract with an option of a second year. He had been on trial with the South Yorkshire outfit prior to signing a permanent deal, making two appearances in pre-season games against Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town and Sheffield Wednesday. His first appearance for Barnsley after signing on a one-year contract, was on the same day against non-league Buxton, where he scored his first goal for the club, in a friendly match.
On 10 August 2012, it was announced Jerónimo had agreed to terms with Australian club Adelaide United on a one-year contract pending a successful medical clearance. Jerónimo scored his first goal for the club in Adelaide United's 3–2 away leg loss to FC Bunyodkor in the clubs' 2012 AFC Champions League campaign. Jerónimo scored within 40 seconds of being introduced as a substitute in the 61st minute. In Round 1, he supplied a clinical ball to Dario Vidošić for the first goal, 50 seconds into the match against Newcastle Jets. Adelaide United won the match 0–2. He was subsequently named Man of the Match.
